Daily Itinerary

 

In this adventurous retreat we will do yoga daily at sun rise and sunset as we travel through the Merzouga Desert, the best part of Sahara!

​

The style of yoga will be Ashtanga/Hatha, slow paced , repetitious movements connected to your ujjayi breath that will help you to be aware of your body and bring you into the present moment. The magic of the desert will support your presence in practice 

The goal is that you will go home developed in your personal practice which will forever bring you back to the peace of the desert.

 

We will also talk about holistic health, where you can ask anything you may be curious about and learn how to incorporate something healthy into your daily routine.

We will arrive around 8pm to Marrakech drop you any place you need there and end your adventure.

I feel above all else, Gloria is an example of how humility is divinity. She shows up to teach in full authenticity, always able to laugh at herself. She gives everyone permission to experience how humour is also sacred, and that a spiritual practice is not always serious, deep, and quiet. She brings a lightness and joy to a space. Her ability to both deep sea dive, and dance lightly on the clouds, and to take people on this journey with her, is such a rare gift. To me, this is the embodiment of wholeness. Gloria is an example of how one can dance through life when we allow energy to flow through all chakras.
